Mordheim: City of the Damned

Assemble a small warband of fantasy fighters and run skirmish battles in a ruined city setting. Players manage a band of around 1–20 models, develop individual members through experience, purchase equipment, and handle injuries or permanent losses as campaigns progress. Gameplay emphasizes close combat and tactical positioning over long-range shooting, using rules adapted from classic tabletop skirmish mechanics. Campaign results affect resources, warband size and abilities, so victories and setbacks carry long-term consequences across multiple scenarios.

Fun, good mechanics, but expensive and lengthy.

It's an okay skirmish game, but one that got me interested in the genre. Go ratmen!
